too salty!

- pork knuckle: tasty with crispy skin. Not much fats around and not oily, amazingly. However, at the end of it, i felt really thirsty after downing a bottle of plain water. I must say, it too salty for my liking.

- casae salad with smoked salmon: very ordinary. The sauce was nothing to crave about, lotsa greens with less than 5 halves cherry tomatoes. The smoked salmon were shockingly salty and i couldnt finish it with the help of my friend! Most importantly, it dont seem like a lovely salad. There's no variety in it! Definitely not worth the price.

- fried calamari: probably the yummiest dish. It's foolproof i think. The batter was very light and its chewy!

The beverages are too overpriced and it pains to pay that much for what i can buy from outside.

I was told by one of the staff that phototaking isnt allowed. I seriously didnt know such rule exist! I mean, its DEFINITELY a waste, a pity to not be able to take photos of the interiors! They are so nicely decorated, so cottage-like. It's such a nice atmosphere where gatherings would probably be held at and phototakings are the norm! In my opinion, this rule shouldnt have exist! It's kinda disappointing and a waste on putting up such nice decors. If its about the stalls (how they cook their dishes) or their food, i can understand. But why the interiors? The funniest part - it was the same staff who spotted me taking photos before i started on my food. Only about 45minutes later, he came to inform me. By then, im about to leave the place already!

Occasion:Large Groups/Gathering, Children/Family, Girls Night Out, After Work
